I am sending an email from my script: but the body contains a long URL. the URL keeps getting forced into a line break: (ex. http://fakeurl.com/a=12345&b=123 45 ) so the link doesn't work I also tried putting some HTML code in my mail <A HREF = "http://fakeurl.com/a=12345&b=12345">Click Here</A> but it dones't send correctly. I am not sure if it is the quotes, or the <A or what. It looks as if it is forcing in anoother <A HREF> around my url, despite it already having one. Is there anyway to not make a line break be added, or can I get HTML Href's to work. Anyone else have this problem?
